The UCSB EDVR (Victor discography) site cannot be updated due to
faulty server software, but I can share what we have for this.

"Soko" is matrix O-263, recorded in Mexico City of July 12, 1907.
98145 is the s/s release no. of the master.

The flip side of 62010 is "Las cuatro hermanas" by Banda de Zapadores
in Mexico City on 7/28/1905.

62000s were intended for export. Your label is probably a misprint.

But even those Climax discs AFAIK, a "joint" Col/Vic product though they may have been, formed a distinct series and were never issued with Victor labels, or were they? I still can't think of any pre-EMI Columbia masters issued with Victor labels or vice versa. Am I wrong again?
